Cove lighting is a form of indirect lighting where the light source, typically an LED strip housed in a profile, is concealed within an architectural recess or ledge high on a wall or ceiling. This technique directs light upwards to reflect off the ceiling or an adjacent wall, washing the room in a soft, diffuse glow that eliminates harsh glare and sharp shadows. By integrating the fixture into the structure itself, cove lighting creates a sophisticated and seamless aesthetic, enhancing the sense of space and providing a comfortable ambient light that adds elegance and a modern feel to both residential and commercial interiors.
